Re: Silver Slipper Chip
In Response To: Silver Slipper Chip ()

'Concentric circles' refers to lines on the coin inlay that occur due to polishing the dies. If present, they will appear over the full face of the inlay. I don't see them on your example.

Some maintain that all coin inlay chip originally had concentric circles and if you don't see them, they were worn off the chip. I don't think so. I think the wear occurred on the coin-dies and later production of this type chip had dies worn smooth and no 'concentric circles'.
